[Alberg30] Traveler

[quest433 at msn.com]

It strikes me that there are only disadvantages if you move the traveler to the bridge deck.  I see a lot of the older cruising boats that move the traveler out of the cockpit to the cabin top--this makes sense.  Coming up for a reason for moving it from one end of the cockpit to the other is impossible.

Has anyone on this list ever moved their traveler forward in the cockpit so
that it runs across the seat just aft of the companionway, attaching to the
mid-boom vs. the end? Other than going against the racing rules for A30¹s
and occasionally blocking part of the companionway access, would there be
any advantage or disadvantage related to performance in doing this?
